魏之璜
明代吴派山水画家
魏之璜（1568–1647），字叔考，上元（今南京）人，明代画家。 He came from a poor family and supported them by selling his paintings. In calligraphy, he followed the style of the 'Huangting Jing,' and in landscape painting, he drew inspiration from Song Dynasty artists while creating his own new ideas. His rocks, valleys, and trees varied a lot in style. In his later years, he painted with heavy ink and worn-out brushes, giving his works an aged and solid feel. He was also skilled at painting flowers with light ink and Buddhist images. His compositions were unique, and he is considered a later follower of the Wu School, with some connection to the ancient painting style interpreted by Shen Zhou. 1609年，万历三十七年，他创作了扇面画《松崖待渡图》。1627年，天启七年，他协助编辑胡正言的《十竹斋画谱》。1633年，崇祯六年，他完成了长达882厘米的《墨梅卷》。至1645年，顺治二年，他仍在创作《烟雨林峰图》等作品。 他的传世作品包括北京故宫博物院的长卷《彩山水》、美国的《二十四花历》卷以及《秋入空山》。 明末，他与兄长魏之克在艺术界均享有盛名，常受文人官员之托作画。
